Default anyone get your "recall" sticker?

i got one in the mail today... i will post a pic of it shortly (probably tomorrow). it was one of the weight change ones... and it says the load carrying capacity of the car has been reduced by.... get this....

1 pound, 0 KG's....

WTF??? why do i have to attach that? i'm writing to scion and asking why the stupid money spent on millions of those to say "1 pound less load carrying capacity". it's the stupidest thing i ever saw.

ok, end rant

Wow, craziness! I'm waiting on the other recall, the one for the moisture getting into the brake area or whatever.

Wouldn't have been cheaper for Scion to just remove that rear-seat middle headrest?

No big deal to me. I think the older sticker said the capacity was reduced by more than that. I simply peeled the old one off and stuck the new one on.

If I ever sell the car, I doubt anyone will care about a pound reduction in capacity.
